This new session is designed to give all UNISON representatives the knowledge, confidence and skills required to write effective motions.  It will be delivered jointly by a Regional Officer and the West Midlands representative on the National Stading Orders Committee in order to give a broad perspective on UNISON rules on motions and structures of the union.

The workshop will cover:

  • An understanding  of what a motion is and what they are used for
  • How to write a competent motion
  • Understand roles in policy making of the union, using democratic structures
  • Avoid common pitfalls that could result in a motion being ruled out of order.

Please note that there is a £7.50 per head branch charge for this course.
